Artichokes with garlic, herbs and paprika

Whisk together the garlic, olive oil, herbs, and lemon juice. Season the marinade with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Drain the artichokes from the jar and add them to the marinade along with the finely diced bell pepper. Marinate the artichokes in the refrigerator for a few hours. These marinated artichokes are a great addition to a Mediterranean buffet! Tip: You can also substitute frozen 8-herb mix for the marinade; I sometimes do that when I’m in a hurry!
